Panorama's 'Hillsborough: How They Buried The Truth' To Include Unseen Footage

Panorama will broadcast unseen footage from the Hillsborough disaster in their investigation "Hillsborough: How They Buried The Truth".

The hour-long programme, which will be aired at 9pm on Monday 20 May on BBC1, will detail British football's worst disaster, when 96 Liverpool fans died during the Reds' 1989 FA Cup semi-final against Nottingham Forest.

Reporter Peter Marshall "asks why a succession of official investigations left the truth hidden for a generation", says the Radio Times.

The unseen footage reveals "a failure by the emergency services" and "how lives might have been saved".

Marshall's exploration will also detail how subsequent inquiries were misled.

Last month it was confirmed a new inquest into the deaths will take place in "early 2014".
